more so software issue. once Asus is really aware they can always change values or output strength of BT to where not interfering. there are people who using controller for onlive online play n have no issue. check out the game controllers thread in accessories section.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jzen:
Its both a software and hardware issue, mostly coming from the wonderful metal casing...

If your looking to stream onlive and use a bluetooth controller, you will likely get a degraded stream of said game. But it should still work, just perhaps not as good quality (picture wise because of the wifi signal getting jumbled and the bluetooth controller may not be as responsive).

Hi,

I recently rooted my LG Revolution that i got just a week or so ago....I put Gingervolt on it and it was working fine, until I went to check my phone and found that the apps button was totally gone... idk where it went :( any help is appreciated
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
Longpress your homescreen, select launcher actions, then open/close app drawer

That should do it.

Ive installed an apk and now my screen is black :( only the lockscreen is visible after unlocking the phone its all black and i cant do anything. I have odin but I dont know how to wipe the phone since my screen is black and cant go to settings.

thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
remove battery n insert after 3 or 5 secs. then get in to recovery mode by holding

Volume up + home + Power. then do a Clean Wipe. it may work.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingcrunch89:
Alright so I have an HTC incredible and it keeps power cycling. The S- is ON and I can't figure out what to do.

I have tried the following:

downloaded stock rom

verified MD5

renamed stock rom to pb31img.zip

put it on sd card(formatted it first)

hboot

fast boot to load image

and thats as far as i can get, the phone wont accept the file, it keeps giving me error messages.

i than tried to put clock work on sd and renaming it... same thing...

i cant figure this out...

someone ...

PLEASE HELLLLPPPPPPPP
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
It needs to be named exactly PB31IMG.zip capps and all and it has to be on the root of your sd in no folders.

Also dont use fastboot you just use hboot. It should find the file and prompt you to press vol up to update. Also i dont know where you got your stock image from but here is a link to a known good one. http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=22

[Verizon Droid Charge] cnoevl21:
I am new to android and trying to figure things out. I notice a lot of the ROMS say that they don't have a kernel. Do I need to download and flash a kernel as well as a ROM? What would happen if I just flashed a ROM? I was looking at Eclipse and Tweakstock as possible options, but both say they don't come with a kernel. I am running the stock kernel (2.6.35.7-EP4). What would happen if I flashed Eclipse or Tweakstock with the stock kernel? Would it work? If I do need to get another kernel, any suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Why would you look at Eclipse? It's extremely outdated. Also, TweakStock has a version with a kernel in it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] cnoevl21:
Eclipse was the only ROM i noticed that said TW4. I wanted to be able to resize widgets and I know u can do that in TW4. As for the Tweakstock, I see now that there r multiple versions, though to be honest i'm kinda not sure which one im supposed to use. I think the last one with the experimental repacked EP4D kernel, but im not entirely sure. Again, I'm new to all this. Been on stupid windows mobile for the past few years, so i apologize if this is "no-brainer" stuff.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
if you're on stock then the repack kernel should work fine
[HTC Sensation] Sinistra425:
I am trying to get cid to work but I have read that it will only work on 1.17 any ideas ?
[HTC Sensation] Hitmax117:
If you use revolutionary to S-OFF your device it will have hboot 1.17 (from my own experience)

You can only change cid if your hboot is S-OFF
[HTC Sensation] Sinistra425:
So unlocking the bootloader is not s-off that's just onlocking the recovery
[HTC Sensation] Hitmax117:
If you want to change your cid you need to have an unlocked bootloader by S-OFFING your hboot

But why do you even want to change your cid?
[HTC Sensation] Sinistra425:
So I can install a custom Rom
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
No need to supercid for custom roms, since they don't have cid checking. Just s-off and flash a recovery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Paulx777:
I want to put CWM on my SGS4G. I already replaced the "update.zip" file and put the "recovery" file in the right place on the SD card and I have ROM manager dl'd and installed. My only question is when I hit the "Flash CWM" button in ROM manager, it asks which phone i'm using and it doesn't list the SGS4G. So which one do I choose....It lists....Google Nexus S, Google Nexus 4G, Samsung Epic4G and Samsung Galaxy S i9000. Which do I choose?

Also, i have already upgraded to the stock Gingerbread 2.3.6, does this make a difference? Can I still get CWM on my phone? Or is there a different way I have to install it?

Thanks for any help!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
First thing to do is delete rom manager. It does not work for this phone. Get rid of it. Second use Odin to flash a modded kernel. It comes with cwm. Look for one in the dev section. Make sure you use a gb kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
- The method you are attempting to use to update to CWM works on Froyo only; not on Gingerbread (GB).

- ROM Manager does not work on this phone & will cause you problems. You should uninstall it.

- If you're wanting CWM on your GB ROM, you have a couple of options:

-- Install a modified kernel that has it (like drhonk's KJ1 kernel)

-- Install bhundven's Subtly Modified Stock with CWM5 + Voodoo Lagfix

Best of luck to you.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Barry4405:
I've had my NT for about a week and was able to sideload just about everything I wanted without doing a root. Then the dreaded 1.4.1 upgrade struck and I was unable to do anything more. I was able to revert back to 1.4.0, and do a factory reset to get everything working again. Then decided to take the plunge and use Indirect's root process. (yes, it was a big decision because I said I would avoid it if possible).

The problem is, I can't past the first step. I've enabled USB debugging and downloaded the files I need, but the NT will not show up in the device manager with the "!" symbol. I've read through all the threads and tried a number of different things, but the NookandZergy program will not identify the NT.

I think I'm stuck, if I stay where I am I will get hit with the OTA upgrade again, but I can't seem to work through the process to change it.

Any ideas?

This forum is AMAZING. I double checked the link you suggested and found what I had missed. It took me about four attempts but I finally was able to get the driver to work, and everything worked great after that.

Thank you so much!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Barry4405:
OK, thanks to my own ineptitude I am back to square one.

After installing the root I somehow messed up the launcher, couldn't get to ADW and had no web access. I figured the quickest fix would be to start over again. I did an install of 1.4.0 and wiped everything clean. I followed the instructions that I used before to get the ADB drivers working, and they will not work. Everytime I connect the NT it shows up as drives E and F and windows insists on installing the drivers, even though I have disabled the auto installation.

I've used USBDeview utility and checked and double checked the USB debugging, it still insists on installing drivers for it.

What am I missing???
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Barry4405:
OK, I think I solved it. Shortly after I sent the last message it occured to me, "I don't need to look for and install the drivers I need, they're already there from the last time." Sure enough, I connected the NT and ran Zerg and..Bazinga. I have a rooted NT again.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtheculprit:
Yep, I I accidentally the whole thing. I clicked the wrong button in TIBU.

Anyways, I got the phone yesterday, updated it to 2.3.6, and rooted it, but otherwise left it alone. I just rooted so I could restore my apps from my previous phone with TIBU. I did not restore data. Today, I was trying to fix an issue I was having with accounts and sync, and I meant to freeze it, but I hit uninstall and wasn't paying attention to the prompts, so it uninstalled it. It was backed up, but I can't re-install it. I even found the app's .apk in system/app folder, and tried to re-install it but it will not, it just tries for like a second and then says "Not installed". The option is now missing from my settings menu.

I would really like a way to fix it without having to wipe and re-install the OS, but if I have to I can.

nb4 "did you search?" yes, I did. I couldn't find anything that helped.

Thanks in advance, everyone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteway.619:
Download a rom for your phone thats2.3.6 and unzip it. Go into system/app and take the apk that u need. Push it to your system/app folder with root explore. Change permissions to the ones on the pic and reboot and u should be good.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtheculprit:
I pushed the file and changed permissions to exactly as shown in the picture, and it still came back with "application not installed"

Edit: DERP, big time derp, forgot to reboot. one minute.

Edit 2: changed permissions, rebooted, still would not install.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteway.619:
No u need to just copy paste to system/app change permissions then reboot. Don't try to install like a regular app
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtheculprit:
I did that, but the Applications and Sync option is not there.

If I did a recovery update to 2.3.6 again, would that fix it perhaps? or will it not let me update it that way since it's already on 2.3.6?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtheculprit:
Actually, I did just that, and it fixed it! sigh. I wish I had thought of that right away. Now I'm back to my original problem that I was trying to fix, though. When i try to add my facebook account in accounts and sync, I click on add account, select the facebook icon, and it just goes back to the previous page without doing anything.

Oh well. At least I got the big problem fixed, thank you for helping.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
reflash whatever rom you currently have, but don't wipe the data/factory reset. Since the file you need is in the system folder it'll rewrite.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtheculprit:
I just ran the 2.3.6 update again. It fixed it, but it turns out that the problem I was trying to fix in the first place which led me to uninstall the app was not a problem at all, it was google locking out facebook sync on nexus S :mad: meh, whatever. I only did it for the pictures anyways. Thanks though!
[General Questions and Answers] progastar:
DarkSide 4.5.9. musicplayer is missing, was the same on 4.5.5. I hope, that newer builds can be installed as update (without formatting)
[General Questions and Answers] Deggy:
Did you try posting in the actual thread containing said rom? Did you download the lite version?
[General Questions and Answers] progastar:
...I only posted it here, because I'm an new member and are not allowed to post in dev's. Yes I chose the lite-version, because I only want my hardware running. I don't need other blur-stuff, but I thought, that a music-player is an essential part of lite-blur.

Do you know, if there is a version, that can be installed as an update (without formatting with ext4, if ext4 already exists)? In CM it was possible to install a newer version over an older without wiping, so all data, apps, and settings were kept.
[General Questions and Answers] xcalout:
For better "support" you could post it in the Atrix general forum, instead of "General" general ;) Anyways, if the said player is in previous version of rom, just download this older version on your computer, and extract musicplayer apk from rom zip archive (it's probably going to be somewhere in /system/apk ), and load it into your phone.

cheers

---------- Post added at 02:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 PM ----------

BTW... I have the same version of DS (4.5.9 lite) installed right now, and I see that the music player is included (the one from moto blur).

cheers
[General Questions and Answers] progastar:
I installed the full blur now and now the player is installed. No chance with the lite version. I posted this here, because I didn't knew that it was Atrix specific.

Anyway, thank you for your answer and quick reaction...

Are there any settings im missing to make Netflix play full screen?

As of now, ive got almost a half inch on either side of the picture of black border. When im watching a movie off my SD card, it will play full screen.

Im guessing its just the app?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dragonbro:
Netflix plays full screen for me...Not even sure how to access any setting for the app. Try different shows, it might just be the format of the specific show. If I watch "Parks and Recreation" it shows just fine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] edstewbob:
It depends on the show that is being viewed. Blues Clues displayed a partial screen and when I single touched the screen it got bigger but never filled the entire screen area. Secrets Beneath the ICE: Nova played at full screen right away.

[General Questions and Answers] p3r02d3r0:
Hi,

I probably have a stupid question for you guys, but I gotta ask it.

So, I currently have the latest ClockworkMod Recovery and a custom ROM. And I want to flash a new recovery. It's 4EXT recovery, to be more specific.

So my questions are following:

1. Will I mess up my ROM by flashing a new recovery? Do I have to do a Nandroid before flashing new recovery?

2. If 1. is correct, and I do backup, will a normal restore do the trick in order to run my ROM properly, after I already flashed a new recovery?

3. If I wanna go back to ClockworkMod recovery, will a normal flash via ROM Manager be enough to perform that?

Many thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] The-Captain:
No, your backup will be gone, you should not have to do a wipe or flash another rom. Yes, you can just flash it back threw rom manager.

Please hit the thank you button if i helped!
[General Questions and Answers] _ax3l:
how can it be gone if nandroid saves in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/ ???
[General Questions and Answers] The-Captain:
Because another recovery does not use the same folder.

[General Questions and Answers] p3r02d3r0:
Okay, thanks, but you didn't answer on my first question.

Will I mess up my current ROM after flashing a new recovery?

[Hardware Hacking General] nitrous²:
So, i got a problem with my i9000. When I'm in a building, the phone loses the mobile network connection and I cant't receive or make calls. I tried almost every modem, several cfw and official fw. No luck...I already dissasembled my sgs, just to look if there's a disconnected pin or another hw damage, but everything was fine. Then I bought SIM cards of every provider in Germany, just to be sure it's not because of the lame radio capacity of my current provider (I'm using prepaid)...the same story with everyone of them, no signal, no line or whatever it is called. There aren't any hw damages, I think, because in that case I wouldn't have wifi or gps signal either and as you can imagine, I don't have problems with wifi or gps.

Now, I have an idea. Is it possible to extend the built-in antennacable? Ok, of course it is possible, but would it take effect? I mean, there would be more space on the cable to receive signals.

I really need to know it, if this is not going 2 work, I'll have to sell it and thats very sad, because I have it now for just about a week :(
[Hardware Hacking General] DarthCaniac:
Would it be possible to get some sort of cell-network amplifier?

Similar to this: http://www.amazon.com/Wilson-Electronics-Signal-Booster-Antenna/dp/B003FGWGPS/ref=pd_cp_cps_4

(That is for use in a car, but there are similar ones for use in the office or at home).
[Hardware Hacking General] nitrous²:
Nice, but there's nothing similar to that in germany or maybe I haven't find it yet. Until there isn't another solution, please give me some feedback to my idea of extending the cable.

Ok, so some of my relatives have got SGS too and I took them to compare the network quality. I could see, that only my SGS has bad signal. The other two hadn't those problems. So I guess there's really a HW damage. I ordered an Antenna module but I'm not sure if this will solve the problem. I'm sure there are other parts on its Mainboard which are related to nework singal receiving. Am I right?
[Hardware Hacking General] russ18uk:
You said you tried different firmware; but have you tried different modems?
[Hardware Hacking General] nitrous²:
Yes I did, but thanks for your help.
[Hardware Hacking General] russ18uk:
Apologies, I had missed that as I was intoxicated :/
[Hardware Hacking General] SAI Peregrinus:
I know that at least the Vibrant (very similar to the i9000) has a test-bench antenna port still accessible on the mainboard (next to the SIM card, under a rubber cover). I'm not sure if it's for the GPS or for the cell antenna though. And either way it's pretty impractical to use the phone with the back off and an antenna plugged in, though I suppose one could drill a hole in the cover.
[Hardware Hacking General] nitrous²:
Ok, for me, it's impossible to extend the antenna. I counfounded the WiFi Antenna cable with the one for Mobile radio. Here's a Pic;

As you can see, it'll be very very difficult to extend those plates. I still assume, there's a damage on the Main-/Mother -board and not on that Antenna Module. If the module arrives, I'll build it in and give it a try. Btw, has someone of you an idea where I can buy a board for the i9000? I'm just searching now for a while but can't find any.
[Hardware Hacking General] urra901109:
i dont think its a good idea to extend the antenna, as the antenna needs to be in exact length to work but you can always try. + the receptacle that you found may be just to improve the GSM signal... best bet is the antenna-mainboard connection. maybe oxide buildup causing it not electrically connected. try to clean it first with some fast-evaporating liquid like zippo lighter gas.
[Hardware Hacking General] nitrous²:
Ok, I don't know what the problem is. I've built in the new antenna module and I still don't have signal! This can't be a damage on the mainboard because in that case I wouldn't receive any signal but actually, I do. It's like all the parts which are related to signal receiving are working but not to 100%.
[Hardware Hacking General] dagobertcam:
ok thanks for the info
[Hardware Hacking General] ashishshevale:
so you have boiled down problem to mainboard

so this

http://compare.ebay.com/like/250392108967?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&_lwgsi=y&cbt=y

wont be useful :p

yes there could be issue in the pcb in the tracks connectivity and sometimes due to bad metal there might not be correct connection

if you have a multimeter just do a connectivity check (in resistor tab at the end)

but question is

is it feasible

there are thousands of tracks and companys wont give you pinout to tell which one to look at

also you run into gd chances of adding static and bombing some other chip

better go to service center for such thing as they have controlled enviornment

do not try these things

Yep, you're right. When I take the back cover off I have almost 100% signal quality, while I have just 51% signal by backcover on.
[Hardware Hacking General] atirox:
Just felt like adding my two cents to this...

So, while his solution seems to be amazing, you should remember that so long as the copper wire is near the phone, it will be picking up interference from the rest of the phone's electronics. Also, you'll need to find out what the dominant frequency of your cellular provider is, because if you cut the wire to the wrong length, you have the possibility of making it worse, as the new "Antenna" wont be tuned for the frequency you're trying to pick up. Be forewarned, that when the phone has a connection to the external antenna jack, it has the possibility of making the internal antenna inoperable so long as you have something connected to it. Which means if you set the antenna up for 850 MHz, and you're in an area that uses 1900 MHz, you wont get any service, because the antenna isn't set up to work right with the 1900 MHz spectrum.

Also, since you installed a new antenna module, you should configure the phone for the module. At least, according to everything I've read on servicing Nokia phones, when you replace an antenna, you need to configure the attenuation of the new antenna to feel the full effect of replacing the antenna module. This, of course, requires the phone's service software, the correct jig, and your own mini cellular network. ;P
